Stabilize Your Skincare

I Love this. It is perfect as a co-preservative to ensure your formulations are stable. I dissolve 0.3% in one of my water soluable ingredients for cold formulas, and use 1% of my normal preservative. If using it in an emulsion, dissolve in one of the water soluable ingredients that go into the cool doen phase. Do not heat it, especially if you have absorbic acid in the formula, the heating process can lesson the effects as much as 50% or less and it can turn into Benzene. No one wants that.
